About Me

 

My name is Deidre Wicks and I spend my days in a tiny studio in Toronto, Canada where I draw funny animals and try to ignore my cat's demands for more treats. I was first introduced to the wondrous possibilities of illustration while studying fashion design at University. After several years of frustration and struggle in the fashion industry I turned to illustration as an escape and eventually, magically, it became my living.

 

MEET THE STAFF:

MITZI the Rescue Cat: Mitzi has many talents but she is especially good at walking all over a newly finished paintings with her dirty paws. She is also an exceptional model who inspires many of my very best watercolours. (She made me write that last part)
